Hmm, not sure what type of pregnancy or labour my mum and mil had, but I do know that my mum gave birth to three 7 pound or less bubbas, and my mil birthed two 10 pounders, and my DD was 10p4o. So I guess you can say that I carried like my mil.
Interesting thread AE, gonna have to have a chat with them both about their pregnancies and labour.
I almost forgot, I got hit by the most debilitating tiredness when I was pregnant, which my MIL found hard to understand but my sister and mum both understood as they suffered from it too. MIL worked up to 8 months pregnant and my family all had to stop working by around 5 months due to exhaustion.
Nup my MIL had shocking m/s with both babies, I had none. Se said she had 9 1/2 months of it with SIL!!!
My mum had a really really long and slow labour with me and fast with my brother but as I was induced 2 out of 3 times with mine I can't really compare. My mum had both my brother and I on our due date though and my only natural birth was on her due date too!
MIL had bad morning sickness with DH (only child). Ive had none with all 3 pregnancies.
Mum had short labours.. only an hour or 2. My first was 11 hours, second was 16.5 hours. Mum's labours got shorter each child (3) mine.. so far.. have been longer. Mum went into labour before her due date with all 3.. ive always been over.
I have never asked my MIL about her pregnancies TBH but I do know that all the Mrs X (X= married surname here) that have lived in the family home have ALL lost a baby 3 were 20-25 weekers and 2 born sleeping.
My mother had relative short labours I think I recall her saying I was 3 hours and my brother was 5-6 hours.
I am the only one who has had a silent labour up until contrax started at 5 min apart??
Not sure on labours as both my mum and MIL had c-sections. But my mum was 3 weeks overdue with me and 3 out of 4 times ive been at least a week over. MIL had DH 2-3 weeks early and he was breech. So doesn't really ring true for me.
Not in my case. Neither of mine had ms, or went overdue. I had severe ms til 20 weeks 3 times out of 4.
My mum thinks she had spd with her 3rd though, & I got it first time with DS, my 3rd. Mine & mum's first 2 labours were similar lengths, but thats about it.
MIL is passed so i didn't get to ask her what her pgs were like
mum never had much MS though - i had it up until DD was born
mum went 3+weeks post dates with my bro, and was induced with me - her labour with my bro was fairly mundane (when it finally started), with me it took days to establish. that bit sounds familiar to me lol
